Thanks Navid - it's really interesting to see the differences in Regional and team distribution.

Districts don't make as much sense if the team population is lower than ~150% of a event size, allowing 3 district events + district championship. Typically District events are 40 teams although PNW has smaller events.
A district of only 30-40 teams would mean both events + district "championship" had every team competing, so it's not really a championship in any traditional sense*
This puts a practical lower limit of around 50 teams for a District.
* too soon?
